About this map

Cheetham Cem sits near the northern edge of this landscape, serving as a significant genealogical landmark in a region defined by its complex drainage systems. The map illustrates the rural boundary between Colorado Co and Lavaca Co, a line that cuts diagonally through the terrain. This area is heavily defined by the winding paths of West Sandy Creek and its many tributaries, including Middle Sandy Creek and W Sandy Cr. These waterways create a low-lying, intricate network that likely influenced the historical placement of roads and property lines.

Infrastructure is concentrated around the established grid of Sheridan, where streets like Main St and numbered avenues intersect. Outside the immediate settlement, the landscape opens into larger tracts accessed by rural routes such as Shell Plant Rd and Plow Realty Rd. The transition from the structured town blocks to the sprawling reaches along Ragsdale Creek and Parker Cr reflects the traditional Texas agricultural and ranching economy that continues to shape this part of the coastal plains.
